FIM Europe (Formerly the Union Européenne de Motocyclisme (UEM) or European Motorcycle Union) is the FIM-affiliated organisation responsible for motorcycle sport within Europe.

In response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, FIM Europe suspended the issuance of FIM/FIM Europe licences (and those FIM/FIM Europe licences already distributed) to both the Motorcycle Federation of Russia (MFR) and the Belarusian Federation of Motorcycle Sport (BFMS).[1] FIM Europe also suspended the functions of people from MFR and BFMS acting as FIM/FIM Europe officials and as members/experts/agents of the FIM/FIM Europe, banned Russian and Belarusian riders, teams, and officials from taking part in FIM/FIM Europe events and activities, suspended the registration of and cancelled all FIM/FIM Europe events (such as meetings, races, and prize events) taking place in Russia and Belarus, and interrupted any other FIM/FIM Europe activities (including but not limited to seminars, commissions meetings, and training camps) taking place in Russia or Belarus.[1]
